FSC 1.x Release Notes

  • Last updated on

FSC 1.x firmware supports Firewall Secure Connectors SC 1.x. (legacy) For more information, see SC1 Revision A.

The Secure Connector deployment needs a Secure Access Controller and a Control Center. See the CloudGen Firewall Release and Migration Notes for additional information.

What´s New in 1.1.0

FSC Containers

The Secure Connector running firmware 1.1.0 or higher can now run a single LXC container. The container is distributed and installed via the firmware update page on the Control Center.

For more information, see FSC Container.

Network Mapping Support

It is now possible separate data and management networks for the FSC. It is also possible to map the network behind the FSC to an automatically or manually mapped FSC data network. This allows you to use identical network configurations for each FSC, while still retaining a unique subnet for each location.

For more information, see How to Add a Secure Connector Configuration.
